Possible malware? Downloaded a mod for a game yesterday, now Task Manager is displaying multiple open programs in Chrome

Thanks for clicking!

So, yesterday I downloaded a reshade mod for PLAYERUNKNOWN'S BATTLEGROUNDS from https://reshade.me/ to help make my game look better. Today after getting on my computer, I've noticed that there were multiple processes of Google Chrome, Discord and other things running at the same time even though I had only one window open at a time. I've never seen this before until today (coincidentally after I downloaded the reshade mod), so I'm a bit skeptical of it.

Here is a screenshot of what my Task Manager looks like: https://imgur.com/a/cglmr

Normally there would only be one process open for each application, but for Discord and Cortana three of them are running at the same time and there's eight processes of Google Chrome running. This has never happened before until today.

Thanks for taking the time to read! Let me know what you guys think.
